Graded Assessment #7: Diagnostic Case Study
Paper
The Diagnostic Paper focuses on the application of a specific diagnostic category
found in the DSM 5-TR (e.g., Schizophrenia, Borderline Personality Disorder, Conduct Disorder, etc.) to a case study. Students will select a case study from their own practice, find a case study in the literature, or create a case study of a client who appears to have the selected mental health diagnosis (the case study is not part of the 5-8-page count but must be provided at the beginning of the paper).
The 8-10-page paper must be well-written, in APA style, and without spelling or grammatical errors (please submit your paper to Grammarly to ensure it is well-written!). The paper must include no less than 5 peer-reviewed journal articles addressing the selected diagnosis and supporting your diagnosis of the client in the case study. The paper can either be done in a group or individually. In order to demonstrate mastery of the course materials, the Final Diagnostic Paper must include the following:
The Selected Diagnosis
Discuss (do not list!!) the major features of the diagnostic criteria found in the DSM-5-TR that apply to your selected case
Assessment
Include in this section the empirically-based assessment tools commonly used to make this particular diagnosis in order to rule out any differential diagnoses
Discuss the usefulness and appropriateness of these assessment tools when applied to children or adults from diverse populations
Discuss how the client would be assessed from a Medical Model
Discuss how the client would be assessed from a person-in-environment perspective
Values and Ethics
Discuss any issues related to values and ethics that might be encountered when working with a client who has been given this diagnosis and how a clinical social worker might address them.
